($75, Paterno Wines International): Over the last decade, Chanson, one of the great names in Burgundy, has failed to deliver wines commensurate with the stature of its vineyards, especially since it owns tremendous sites-parts of ten 1er cru vineyards-in Beaune. That situation appears to be changing. Bollinger, who recently purchased Chanson, installed Gilles de Courcel, head of the respected Domaine Courcel in Pommard, to run the house. Already, Chanson is again turning out some impressive wines. Clos des Fèves, a 9.5-acre vineyard owned exclusively by Chanson, is their flagship red wine. The 2002 Clos des Fèves is stunning. A captivating nose followed by pure sweet fruit intermingled with just a touch of earthiness and incredible length makes this an exquisite example of Burgundy. 95 Michael Apstein Oct 17, 2006
